(The "first two" and "middle" refer to locations on http://www.mpfamilyofcards.com/club/, just in case anyone is confused.)

For the first two cards you have to spend $35K for 5000 EQM, then 1 EQM per $10, up to 10,000 EQM. You'd have to spend $85K to get 10,000 EQM, as opposed to $35K, including $5K united.com purchases, under the old system.

For the middle card, you can only earn 5,000 EQM from .com purchases; no EQMs available for spending gobs of money.

In all, it's a worse deal if you care about the EQMs.
